Seaside Heights — Moonrise was at 7:44 in Seaside Heights, and the supermoon popped over the ocean.

People gathered on the boardwalk and took pictures as the moon started out red and changed to a yellow as it rose into the night sky.

According to NASA, the scientific term for the phenomenon is "perigee moon." This full moon happens at the hour of perigee when the moon is closest to the earth. On Sept 9, the full moon will happen on the same day as pedigree, according to NASA.
